Saturday 12 November. Day 262 of the illegal war #Russia is waging on #Ukraine
This is the daily thread with all the news of the conflict

Quite a day yesterday, full of amazing emotions and joyous scenes. If you missed it, just take a scroll through here:
⚡️Breaking⚡️

#Russia's (estimated) war dead today tops 80,000

Just two weeks ago today the total reached 70k.
The daily mean Russian deaths since then has been 711.

Today all the first four categories are above average
#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
the #UK's Defence Minister @BWallaceMP has a message for #Russia and its people after yesterday's liberation of #Kherson and the whole region east of the River Dnipro.
The emotional de-occupation of #Kherson is just the start of a new chapter and some difficult decisions now need to be taken.

#Ukraine says it fears a big missile attack during the G20 summit next week. While places like #Mariupol and #Crimea now in range for Ukraine's artillery
A better video has emerged of the destruction of the #Antonivskyi bridge in #Kherson.

CCTV shows the moment of the enormous blast which finally brought down a section of the main route across the river Dnipro

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
One tweet from late yesterday you may have missed.

#Banksy in #Ukraine!

A wonderful video to celebrate the release of #Kherson, from #Ukraine's Defence Ministry.

#Hallelujah! #SlavaUkraini
No bridge? No problem for #Ukraine.
Seen in #Kherson region.

#StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
Interesting. #Sweden spy scandal.

Just weeks after the #Norway drones stories, a far more serious espionage case emerges in its neighbour:

#StopRussia

Apologies. Earlier I posted video of damage to a bridge in #Kherson. It was of course not the #Antonivskyi but the the bridge over the #NovaKakhovka dam.

Any bridges in the region, even if already damaged by #Ukraine shelling, were brought down when #Russia fled.
Refugees from #Kherson have been celebrating all over the world - from near and far.

I know people who immediately moved to #Odesa, not that far away. This morning many gathered outside the world famous opera house in the port city.

#Odessa #SlavaUkraini
Now searching to see if this is translated into English, and if not why not!

@AngryFil's post pointed me to this historic book and highly recommends it.

Paying tribute to #Ukraine's army. The people of #Kherson say thanks for liberating their city.

#SlavaUkraini #StopRussia
Early this morning @alexrossiSKY was engulfed by well-wishers as he accompanied a #Ukraine army crew into #Kherson.

This is near #Chornobaivka and the legendary airport!
A mix of Ukrainian and Russian being spoken.

#Chernobaevka #SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
I have good news - the stuff we bought with your donations crossed the border from Poland to #Ukraine late last night.

Hopefully it will arrive at the front line tomorrow.
You can see how much clothing etc. we got - the document is the border/customs document.
More gifts left behind by #Russia when they evacuated #Kherson oblast.

The Sun's journalists were shown this warehouse in #Blahodatne (RU: #Blagodatnoe) in the north of the territory, near the regional border with #Mykolaiv.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
Yet more good news claimed by #Ukraine.

The exiled Governor of #Luhansk oblast tells the national TV show that they have reclaimed 11 more settlements.

Here's the translation of his subsequent post:

#SlavaUkraini #Lugansk
The good people of #Kherson have just escaped #Russia and its curfew, but after one night of celebration they are straight back in to another curfew.

#Ukraine has imposed a 5pm to 8am restriction amid fears some Russians were left behind and changed into civilian clothes.
This is the Antonivskyi Bridge in #Kherson, as seen from a drone.

Liberating the rest of the region will be extremely difficult.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
The first videos from abandoned #Chornobaivka reveal some of #Russia's ruined equipment from the 40 or so hits on the airport in north #Kherson.

#Chernobaevka #SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
There are reports tonight of explosions around #Chaplynka in the south of #Kherson near to #Crimea.

It's believed a lot of #Russia's equipment in the region was moved south to Chaplynka, especially the airport there.

Well, we need a "new" Chornobaivka😅

Thanks for finding me again!
It's Daily Thread time, Day 1241 of the full invasion of a sovereign nation by a brutal, sadistic, rogue terrorist state.

If we are civilised and want to protect our values, way of life and our children, we have to do everything to stop Russia.
I'm starting the thread before heading off for sleep.

Very healthy numbers of viewers/likes yesterday on both X and BSky.

Some very important articles and videos to read and watch in the thread, take time to scroll through if you missed them on Thursday
Russia's nightly attack was again fairly low key - and no Kyiv did not get attacked despite being "Kellogg-less"

Dnipro, Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia regions were all subject to drone attacks.

In Dnipro at least 3 explosions in Pavlohrad but no news of damage has been revealed.

It's Day 1240 of the war in Europe.

It's also Thursday 17 July, a beautiful mid-summer's day, and on this day 11 years ago Russia murdered almost 300 crew and passengers when shooting down flight MH-17 over occupied Ukraine.

The Terrorism never stopped.
Here's the daily thread Image

Wednesday is well worth catching up on if you missed anything from yesterday's🧵

Numerous new Russian war crimes including a sickening town centre attack during evening rush hour, a Latvian mayor injured in the war the maiden flight of Ukraine's Big Bird
Those who made it to the end of yesterday's thread will know that it was a fairly quiet night in the skies, though Dnipropetrovsk region was targeted.

Only 64 drones were fired by Russia, but 36% got through air defences.

36 were shot down, just 5 simulators or stopped by EW. Image

A very warm welcome and thank you for joining me on Day 1239 of Russia's war of choice, Putin's choice to attempt to remove Ukraine from the map and commit genocide on its people.

Every single day I put all the important news in one handy thread. Here is Wednesday's feed:
Yesterday was Ukraine's Day of Statehood.
Kyiv celebrated with successful attacks on military targets in Russia.

But the night saw more huge drone swarm attacks on a number of Ukrainian cities.
Catch up on anything you missed, here:

A series of cities in Ukraine clearing up this morning after night attacks.

Kharkiv, Kramatorsk, Krivyi Rih, Odesa and Vinnytsia were all hit. So far no authorities have reported any deaths overnight, but there are many injuries.

Day 1238 of the all out war, but also 4,162 days since Putin launched his original invasion in Crimea.

It's Tuesday 15 July and the day after a somewhat deflating series of announcements by Donald Trump.

Let's begin THE daily thread..
All international main stream media are headlining Trump's U-turn on Ukraine.

And while they are correct, none has picked apart the announcements which are more like a left-branch than a 180 turn.

Here's where to find yesterday's news:

1/3
So Trump has, crucially, for the first time, allowed US weapons to go to Ukraine, so it is a step forward. And while no specifics, let's hope the best long-range weapons are to be given.

But no confirmation about the U.S. using Russia's frozen assets in favour of Ukraine.

So Russia is currently 1233 days behind schedule in its expectation to control Kyiv.

I've documented it here every day. Saturday had some more blatant Russian war crimes, starting with more death and destruction.
